Lehetségeiket

Lehetségeiket is a Hungarian noun phrase meaning “their possibilities” or “their opportunities.” It is formed as the third-person plural possessive of the noun lehetőség (opportunity, feasibility), using the standard possessive suffix -eik. In modern Hungarian, the most common standard form for “their opportunities” is lehetőségeik. The spelling lehetségeiket is uncommon and may appear as a misspelling, a dialectal variant, or a historical form, depending on the source.

Use and context: The phrase occurs in discussions of options available to groups, such as in policy analysis, education, employment, or social planning. It conveys the set of possible courses of action accessible to the subjects indicated by the possessive pronoun.

Morphology and spelling notes: The root lehetős- means “possibility” or “opportunity” and is derived from the verb lehet, meaning “to be able.” The possessive suffix -eik marks third-person plural ownership; the form of the ending follows Hungarian vowel harmony rules. In standard spelling, the full inflected form is lehetőségeik.
